  • If it makes the people paying taxes feel happy then I don't see why not.

  • You can grow lots of fruit or veggies into a mold. I'm guessing that's what this is. Not enough toes to be AI.

  • Justice Clarence Thomas formally reports trip to Bali paid for by conservative donor
  • That sounds like a great question for the highest court in the country. Wait a minute...

  • Links no longer showing as read after viewing comments/image
  • I can confirm this is related to the 0.19.4 update. The bug goes away if I downgrade my instance.

    That said, it was extra bad with the beta because I think they never got marked read but now that the final release is cut and I've upgraded, they're being marked read on refresh.

    I think. It's possible I just missed that it was working on refresh on beta6 too.

  • What a time to be alive
  • I wish this wasn't so true.

  • Developer posts secret key on GitHub, loses $40K in 2 minutes
  • Better yet you can configure gitignore globally for git. I do this mostly to avoid polluting repo ignore files with my editor specific junk but *.key and similar can help prevent accidents.

  • Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare
  • Right, but AI is not the only way they're doing the data collection.

  • Protect yourself friends.
  • It's cool, it's probably just self extracting. For convenience!

  • Linux user share on Steam breaks 2% thanks to Steam Deck
  • Arch. Not even once.

    For reals though, it's my favorite distro because it taught me a bunch and also, once I understood that bit, it really is the only one that just worked on all my machines at the time, 15 years ago.

  • Elon musk surprised shareholders with this HOT investment trick.

  • Switched to linux before it became mainstream

  • It probably won't be profitable in rural areas to begin with.

  • Google accused of secretly tracking drivers with disabilities
  • I usually think TurboTax is tracking me and selling my data to Google and others.

  • Appeal
  • Just to clarify, that base needs to be a lot more flared for it to be safe. Otherwise it definitely looks like Alito's style.

  • My favorite graph
  • Cute. But no, I'm commenting to explicitly point out that the censorship is still there but coming from the platforms run by companies.

  • Rant: vanilla local app search is ridiculously bad

    For a search company I can't believe how terrible the Android app search is. I can't even search "bank" for my banking apps, and there doesn't really seem to be any metadata except for the title that goes into the search. Which is absolutely ridiculous given how many companies name their apps something cReAtIvE like "home" or "Resideo" or "Smart Hq." I just want to search GE for the damn GE app. Or "thermostat" for Resideo. Surely there's something beyond surface level here because obviously this is an extensively solved problem. How is there not metadata or description searching at minimum? My only guess is fear of abuse but Google has definitely dealt with that for their entire existence and up until recently, managed to handle it fine.

    The Sign

    For context, in case you don't have kids (therefor you probably don't watch Bluey), the family in the car (the Heelers) was selling their house to move for a job but ultimately, the dad (Bandit) decided staying at their house with family was more important. As a final act of demonstration, he lifts the for-sale sign out of the ground and throws it onto the street, with emotional montage music playing in the background.

    Basically the meme being, I reject this and I'll figure out another way.

    Thankfully historical Hashicorp code has been permissively licensed and we have awesome forks like opentofu and openbao.

    My wife made this template and meme and it's too good not to share on the better social media platform.

    White House weighing in on the big issues

    Sources say the decision was made by how long interns spent in each editor. In fact, it appears the vim users simply never exited once they opened the program, presumably because they found it so productive.

    Is SMS 2FA broken/degraded for anyone else?

    I had an issue logging into Twitch last night for the first time in a while. I just didn't get any 2FA messages delivered to me, until about 12 hours later when I was asleep and they were probably long invalidated. and now suddenly I can't log in to my MVD either. Apparently there's some sort of SMS short+long code outage (according to the twilio status page in North America, which is mildly infuriating when this is already shown to be a pretty sketchy 2FA mechanism, at least theoretically.

    Just curious if anybody else has noticed issues or if that's just me. And also, I really hate SMS 2FA.
